14375237f6 Terminology cleanup: The import_control hook is now called preexport.
Once upon a time, far far away, there were the old Bird developers
discussing what direction of route flow shall be called import and
export. They decided to say "import to protocol" and "export to table"
when speaking about a protocol. When speaking about a table, they
spoke about "importing to table" and "exporting to protocol".

The latter terminology was adopted in configuration, then also the
bird CLI in commit ea2ae6dd0 started to use it (in year 2009). Now
it's 2018 and the terminology is the latter. Import is from protocol to
table, export is from table to protocol. Anyway, there was still an
import_control hook which executed right before route export.

One thing is funny. There are two commits in April 1999 with just two
minutes between them. The older announces the final settlement
on config terminology, the newer uses the other definition. Let's see
their commit messages as the git-log tool shows them (the newer first):

    commit 9e0e485e50
    Author: Martin Mares <mj@ucw.cz>
    Date:   Mon Apr 5 20:17:59 1999 +0000

	Added some new protocol hooks (look at the comments for better explanation):

		make_tmp_attrs          Convert inline attributes to ea_list
		store_tmp_attrs         Convert ea_list to inline attributes
		import_control          Pre-import decisions

    commit 5056c559c4
    Author: Martin Mares <mj@ucw.cz>
    Date:   Mon Apr 5 20:15:31 1999 +0000

	Changed syntax of attaching filters to protocols to hopefully the final
	version:

		EXPORT <filter-spec>    for outbound routes (i.e., those announced
					by BIRD to the rest of the world).
		IMPORT <filter-spec>    for inbound routes (i.e., those imported
					by BIRD from the rest of the world).

	where <filter-spec> is one of:

		ALL                     pass all routes
		NONE                    drop all routes
		FILTER <name>           use named filter
		FILTER { <filter> }     use explicitly defined filter

	For all protocols, the default is IMPORT ALL, EXPORT NONE. This includes
	the kernel protocol, so that you need to add EXPORT ALL to get the previous
	configuration of kernel syncer (as usually, see doc/bird.conf.example for
	a bird.conf example :)).

Let's say RIP to this almost 19-years-old inconsistency. For now, if you
import a route, it is always from protocol to table. If you export a
route, it is always from table to protocol.

And they lived happily ever after.

863ecfc785 The MRT protocol
The new MRT protocol is responsible for periodic RIB table dumps in the
MRT format (RFC 6396). Also the existing code for BGP4MP MRT dumps is
refactored and splitted between BGP to MRT protocols, will be more
integrated into MRT in the future.

Example:

protocol mrt {
        table "*";
        filename "%N_%F_%T.mrt";
        period 60;
}

It is partially based on the old MRT code from Pavel Tvrdik.

a81e18da25 Nest: Fix race condition during reconfiguration
If export filter is changed during reconfiguration and a route disappears
between reconfiguration and refeed (e.g., if the route is a static route
also removed during the reconfiguration), the route is not withdrawn.
The patch fixes that by adding tx reconfiguration timestamp.

13c0be19d3 Nest: Removing separate tmpa from route propagation
This is a fundamental change of an original (1999) concept of route
processing inside BIRD. During import/export, there was a temporary
ea_list created which was to be used instead of the another one inside
the route itself.

This led to some confusion, quirks, and strange filter code that handled
extended route attributes. Dropping it now.

The protocol interface has changed in an uniform way -- the
`struct ea_list *attrs` argument has been removed from store_tmp_attrs(),
import_control(), rt_notify() and get_route_info().

943478b00f Basic VRF support
Add basic VRF (virtual routing and forwarding) support. Protocols can be
associated with VRFs, such protocols will be restricted to interfaces
assigned to the VRF (as reported by Linux kernel) and will use sockets
bound to the VRF. E.g., different multihop BGP instances can use diffent
kernel routing tables to handle BGP TCP connections.

The VRF support is preliminary, currently there are several limitations:

- Recent Linux kernels (4.11) do not handle correctly sockets bound
to interaces that are part of VRF, so most protocols other than multihop
BGP do not work. This will be fixed by future kernel versions.

- Neighbor cache ignores VRFs. Breaks config with the same prefix on
local interfaces in different VRFs. Not much problem as single hop
protocols do not work anyways.

- Olock code ignores VRFs. Breaks config with multiple BGP peers with the
same IP address in different VRFs.

- Incoming BGP connections are not dispatched according to VRFs.
Breaks config with multiple BGP peers with the same IP address in
different VRFs. Perhaps we would need some kernel API to read VRF of
incoming connection? Or probably use multiple listening sockets in
int-new branch.

- We should handle master VRF interface up/down events and perhaps
disable associated protocols when VRF goes down. Or at least disable
associated interfaces.

- Also we should check if the master iface is really VRF iface and
not some other kind of master iface.

- BFD session request dispatch should be aware of VRFs.

- Perhaps kernel protocol should read default kernel table ID from VRF
iface so it is not necessary to configure it.

- Perhaps we should have per-VRF default table.

65d2a88dd2 RPKI protocol with one cache server per protocol
The RPKI protocol (RFC 6810) using the RTRLib
(http://rpki.realmv6.org/) that is integrated inside
the BIRD's code.

Implemeted transports are:
 - unprotected transport over TCP
 - secure transport over SSHv2

Example configuration of bird.conf:
  ...
  roa4 table r4;
  roa6 table r6;

  protocol rpki {
    debug all;

    # Import both IPv4 and IPv6 ROAs
    roa4 { table r4; };
    roa6 { table r6; };

    # Set cache server (validator) address,
    # overwrite default port 323
    remote "rpki-validator.realmv6.org" port 8282;

    # Overwrite default time intervals
    retry   10;         # Default 600 seconds
    refresh 60;         # Default 3600 seconds
    expire 600;         # Default 7200 seconds
  }

  protocol rpki {
    debug all;

    # Import only IPv4 routes
    roa4 { table r4; };

    # Set cache server address to localhost,
    # use default ports tcp => 323 or ssh => 22
    remote 127.0.0.1;

    # Use SSH transport instead of unprotected transport over TCP
    ssh encryption {
      bird private key "/home/birdgeek/.ssh/id_rsa";
      remote public key "/home/birdgeek/.ssh/known_hosts";
      user "birdgeek";
    };
  }

c0adf7e9fc Better support for multitable protocols.
The nest-protocol interaction is changed to better handle multitable
protocols. Multitable protocols now declare that by 'multitable' field,
which tells nest that a protocol handles things related to proto-rtable
interaction (table locking, announce hook adding, reconfiguration of
filters) itself.

Filters and stats are moved to announce hooks, a protocol could have
different filters and stats to different tables.

The patch is based on one from Alexander V. Chernikov, thanks.
